Predicting Bank Marketing Succuss on Term Deposit Subsciption¶
Summary¶
In this analysis, we attempt to build a predictive model aimed at determining whether a client will subscribe to a term deposit, utilizing the data associated with direct marketing campaigns, specifically phone calls, in a Portuguese banking institution.
After exploring on several models (logistic regression, KNN, decision tree, naive Bayers), we have selected the logistic regression model as our primary predictive tool. The final model performs fairly well when tested on an unseen dataset, achieving the highest AUC (Area Under the Curve) of 0.899. This exceptional AUC score underscores the model's capacity to effectively differentiate between positive and negative outcomes. Notably, certain factors such as last contact duration, last contact month of the year and the clients' types of jobs play a significant role in influencing the classification decision.
Introduction¶
In the banking sector, the evolution of specialized bank marketing has been driven by the expansion and intensification of the financial sector, introducing competition and transparency. Recognizing the need for professional and efficient marketing strategies to engage an increasingly informed and critical customer base, banks grapple with conveying the complexity and abstract nature of financial services. Precision in reaching specific locations, demographics, and societies has proven challenging. The advent of machine learning has revolutionized this landscape, utilizing data and analytics to inform banks about customers more likely to subscribe to financial products. In this machine learning-driven bank marketing project, we explore how a particular Portuguese bank can leverage predictive analytics to strategically prioritize customers for subscribing to a bank term deposit, showcasing the transformative potential of machine learning in refining marketing strategies and optimizing customer targeting for financial institutions.
Data¶
Our analysis centers on direct marketing campaigns conducted by a prominent Portuguese banking institution, specifically phone call campaigns designed to predict clients' likelihood of subscribing to a bank term deposit. The comprehensive dataset provides a detailed view of these marketing initiatives, offering valuable insights into factors influencing client subscription decisions. The dataset, named 'bank-full.csv,' encompasses all examples and 17 inputs, ordered by date. The primary focus of our analysis is classification, predicting whether a client will subscribe ('yes') or not ('no') to a term deposit, providing crucial insights into client behavior in response to direct marketing initiatives. Through rigorous exploration of these datasets, we aim to uncover patterns and trends that can inform and enhance the effectiveness of future marketing campaigns.
Methods¶
In the present analysis, and to , this paper compares the results obtained with four most known machine learning techniques: Logistic Regression (LR),Naïve Bayes (NB) Decision Trees (DT), KNN, and Logistic Regression (LR) yielded better performances for all these algorithms in terms of accuracy and f-measure. Logistic Regression serves as a key algorithm chosen for its proficiency in uncovering associations between binary dependent variables and continuous explanatory variables. Considering the dataset's characteristics, which include continuous independent variables and a binary dependent variable, Logistic Regression emerges as a suitable classifier for predicting customer subscription in the bank's telemarketing campaign for term deposits. The classification report reveals insights into model performance, showcasing trade-offs between precision and recall. While achieving an overall accuracy of 83%, the Logistic Regression model demonstrates strengths in identifying positive cases, providing a foundation for optimizing future marketing strategies.
